In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Ellen Langer, Harvard professor, renowned psychologist, and bestselling author of The Mindful Body and 12 other books. Known as the “mother of mindfulness” and the “mother of positive psychology,” Dr. Langer was the first woman to earn tenure in psychology at Harvard. A Guggenheim Fellowship recipient and celebrated social psychologist, her groundbreaking research has been featured in The New York Times Magazine's Year in Ideas issue. Beyond academia, she is also an accomplished gallery-exhibiting painter.

This week's guest has spent over 50 years conducting ground-breaking research showing that your thoughts have a profound impact on your body. Dr Ellen J. Langer is Professor of Psychology at Harvard University, and widely known as the 'mother of mindfulness'. She is the recipient of three Distinguished Scientists awards and the author of twelve books, including her very latest, The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health. In our conversation, we discuss how our mindsets directly affect our physical health, why much of what we attribute to ageing may actually be a consequence of our beliefs and the real meaning of mindfulness. We also explore whether as a society, we need to rethink the concept of work-life balance, with Ellen suggesting that we should instead focus on "work-life integration," where we find interest and joy in whatever we're doing. She also shares a powerful technique that has helped many patients with long term conditions like MS, Parkinson's and chronic pain and she outlines a refreshing approach to decision making: instead of trying to make the "right" decision, we should choose and then "make the decision right". This is a powerful conversation that reminds all of us that we have a lot more control over our wellbeing than we might initially think. Ellen is a wonderful human, full of knowledge, expertise and passion - and the ideas she shares have the power to transform your health, longevity and happiness.   Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

Today we're considering mindfulness. Improving your health often comes with certain sacrifices. You might need to sacrifice time to exercise or money for specialised equipment and food. But mindfulness is different. It doesn't demand our time or cost money. Instead, it suggests we can enhance our health simply by changing the way we think. So, is it really possible to think our way to better health? And if so, where do we begin? In this episode, Harvard professor Ellen Langer joined me to delve into the magical connection between mind and body.

Walking in menopause isn't just exercise — it's your secret sauce for boosting body and mind! With a few fun tweaks, make every step turn into a memory-boosting, fat-burning powerhouse. Slip on those sneakers. Tune in while taking a walk! This episode is all about making walking in menopause more beneficial! Walking 40 minutes three times a week increases Hippocampus(memory central). A 2011 study on older adults at the University of Colorado, published in the Journal Neuroimage, proved this! The hidden gem – you can walk at any pace you like. There's no minimum exertion level for this to happen. Walk short vs long So much research I've shared previously showed that intermittent breaks really matter more.  Breaking up sedentary time with 2-5 minute movement breaks reduced post-meal blood sugar spikes by 17%. Walk after meals 10 minute walks after meals had a more positive impact than a single long walk. Especially when it comes to blood sugar, belly fat and insulin resistance, more studies show! And yes, after is better than before. But if you're debating between before or not at all, yes go! You will make walking in menopause more beneficial this way by directly supporting blood sugar balance and combating insulin resistance. Go a different route or backwards Dr Ellen Langer, the Mother of Mindfulness, was the first female professor at Harvard and she's done some notable research in aging, mindset, and placebo. She shared the idea of creating habits – have us all operating automatically. Instead, she said the secret is noticing. Truly being mindful. More Fun Ways to Make Walking in Menopause a Total Game-Changer Walk and talk (therapists now walk) Need a little therapy? If not with an actual therapist but a friend. There's science to show the combination of walking outdoors (possibly even at a track) and talking is beneficial. Throw into the mix sunshine and you have three powerful serotonin producers, for a feel good session to rival antidepressant and anxiety meds. I've been known to take my phone and call a friend and talk through a 45 minute walk when life gets crazy. Amplify the learning opportunity Students who learn best, do. Learning any material while moving can boost your retention of it. The trick is to find activity and content you can focus on. Walking makes it easy and listening to a podcast that's educating you - whether on the benefits of walking (this is truly meta if you're walking right now) or you're learning about how to organize your closet or why essential amino acids are important. Students who move retain up to 76% compared to 37% while sitting. Weighted vest Using a weighted vest can increase the metabolic costs, relative exercise intensity, and loading of the skeletal system during walking. A study of trail runners concluded that between 5 and 10% the physiological and mechanical changes were significant. Meaning that at 10% additional load, there could be a considerable amount more stress on your system and your mechanics may also be altered. If you weigh 140 lbs and are using a weighted vest, you might be best starting for short periods of time with between 7 and 14 lbs, being careful not to do much time with 14 lbs until well adapted. And Finally—The 8th Way To Make Walking In Menopause More Beneficial Add intervals Do this last one with conscious planning. It's not always “more is better.” Many midlife and older women were born into the “harder or more is better” thinking. It can be hard to lose this. But if you never go easy, you're fooling yourself to think your “hard” effort is actually your capacity. To make walking more beneficial in menopause you'll want it all: short and moderate and longer walks. You'll want brisk and leisurely paced walks. But at the core of the majority of benefits from walking is just do it, daily, for a cumulative effect of movement that occurs several times a day. Are you interested in a virtual training that accumulates in a virtual “event”? Maybe a Flipping 50 walk on the same day, in different parts of the world.

In this insightful episode of the Human Potential Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Ellen Langer, a trailblazer in mindfulness and psychology, to explore the profound impact mindfulness can have on both the mind and body. Dr. Langer's groundbreaking research shows how our thoughts, beliefs, and perceptions can shape our physical reality—improving health, extending life, and enhancing overall well-being. We dive into the difference between living "mindfully" vs. "mindlessly," and how so many of us unknowingly fall into routines that limit our potential. Dr. Langer shares how mindfulness can challenge these patterns, increase creativity, and open up new possibilities in every area of life. Whether you're looking to improve your health, boost performance, or simply embrace a more mindful way of living, this episode will inspire you to rethink your approach to life, health, and personal growth.

Dr. Ellen Langer, known as the “mother of mindfulness,” and the first woman ever tenured in psychology at Harvard University and joins PRETTYSMART for an unforgettable conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about health, aging, and control over your life. With decades of groundbreaking research, Dr. Langer has reshaped our understanding of the mind's power to transform the body and revolutionized how we approach healing, decision-making, and resilience. In this eye-opening episode, we explore: The one phrase she lives by (it changed Danielle's life).  Why the traditional “mind-body connection” is outdated—and how embracing mind-body unity can unlock extraordinary healing potential. The startling study that showed reversing aging isn't science fiction—it's science. How simple shifts in perception, like seeing daily work as exercise, can dramatically improve your health. What her groundbreaking research reveals about the illusion of control—and how to reclaim it in your own life. Why language, like the term “in remission,” shapes how we experience illness and healing. Her personal stories, from her mother's miraculous recovery from terminal cancer to the fire that destroyed nearly everything she owned—and how she found meaning and growth in both experiences.

It's the New Year and many of us are interested in changing habits. Or we think we are… Changing habits can be hard. The question might be, should we be interested in creating habits? We have 60-70,000 thoughts a day. Unfortunately, 90% of them are the same as yesterday. We seek habits, Atomic Habits the book by James Clear, has been at the top of the charts for over five years. Yet, Dr Ellen Langer, author of CounterClockwise and Mother of Mindfulness, a professor at Harvard, says habits might be the worst thing we do. We're no longer aware of our surroundings. She isn't talking about yoga and meditation. She was talking about being aware. By consciously focusing on noticing. What did you notice today if you drove to work? What did you notice on your walk? We're not mindful at all. I'm guilty. I used to preach to university students, no ipods during class. I'd send them out on a walk or run or have them do their mile fitness test without it. Most thought that was awful. Now I often catch up on a podcast or training. When I received an ipod as a gift downloaded with hundreds of my favorite artists and began using it, I was hooked. Shortly after I realized that I was in the middle of a 6 mile run and the battery died. I stopped dead in my tracks and wondered how I'd make it home. Twenty-five years of running with nothing but my thoughts and then I can't move without it. Questions We Answer in this Episode: How changing habits is hard- [00:21:05] What your personality really is - [00:21:40] What is association vs dissociation - [00:11:40] Who do you need to become to have the results you want - [00:38:41] Changing Habits is Hard Thanks to Personality Actions start with thoughts. Our thoughts produce feelings. If we think that exercise has to be hard, then exercise becomes torture, eating differently is deprivation, or going to bed earlier is missing out. It's those thoughts that create feelings, feelings motivate actions. Keep saying “that's just me” then you'll keep being the way you are now. That gets you the results you've been getting. Vs Adapt to the things that will get you what you want. You won't be able to keep doing and thinking the same thing. Take a woman who wants to lose belly fat, sleep better, and build stronger bones. If she's accustomed to nightly cocktails, those drinks may feel like a part of her personality. Even knowing the health benefits of cutting back, she may struggle to stop because her environment and habits reinforce her behavior. The same goes for habits like avoiding exercise, attending muscle-wasting bootcamps, or clinging to diets that give short-term wins but long-term setbacks. These habits feel safe because they're familiar, even when they don't work. But you might not be motivated about changing habits because they've become your personality. If it feels safe, It's what you know. Changing feels unsafe because it disrupts comfort zones. Internal resistance arises when automatic habits take over, like reaching for coffee without thinking or defaulting to social norms. External resistance shows up when family or friends resist your changes, making it easier to stick to old patterns. Thoughts create feelings. Feelings drive actions. And familiar—even if it's struggle—feels safe. Recognizing internal and external triggers is the first step to breaking free and creating the habits that align with your goals. Change starts in your mind. The Path to Changing Habits May Not Be the One You Think I want to leave you with two thoughts. First, maybe changing habits isn't the goal. Reaching goals means not repeating what's gotten the same results. Who do you need to be to have what you want? What messages are you telling yourself? What would someone where you want to be say? Second, maybe it's time to upgrade your system, like a phone or laptop. What if you're operating on comments from years ago—told you're not smart, must work harder, or it's safer to stay quiet? What if you still believe things must be hard to earn what you want? Decades later, you say, “I'll just work harder” instead of considering “different.” Asking, “What if it were easy?” changes everything. What if you spoke up for what you need, skipped what doesn't serve you, and said no unapologetically? Just consider what you likely already know to be true about yourself. There's a juggling act between changing habits and having a true awareness, a mindfulness in every day. What haven't you even dreamed that could be true of this coming year for you?

Having a better menopause experience alone ensures you increase longevity and your health span. Usually we talk about preserving muscle, reversing bone loss, and enhancing walking speed to do so. Today, it's a lot less sweat and breathlessness. but probably the hardest exercise I could ask you to do. Research shows that older individuals with more positive self-perceptions of aging, measured up to 23 years earlier, lived 7.5 years longer than those with less positive self-perceptions of aging. If you don't like what you see, change it. Change the people around you, change what you're doing or not doing. The research study consisted of 660 individuals aged 50 and older who participated in a community-based survey, the Ohio Longitudinal Study of Aging and Retirement (OLSAR). By matching the OLSAR to mortality data recently obtained from the National Death Index, the authors were able to conduct survival analyses. The findings suggest that the self-perceptions of stigmatized groups can influence longevity. If perceptions about aging are formed by the age of 6, you might want to consider that we've likely contributed to our children's and grandchildren's early death or improved longevity, one or the other. You and I have either helped them live longer stronger or believe the little things we've said, and I quote from people and potentially myself having said this: “I'm getting old,” which we don't usually say with a positive spin. This is most likely first said often at age 25 or at 30 when you have at least ⅔ or ¾ of your life left to live. “It's hell getting old.” -said at any age “Just you wait.” -said to younger women about trying to get or stay fit “Grandma is old, honey, you have to be careful.” “There's nothing good about it.” -in reference to getting old “So, that's when it happens/when things start falling apart.” “I am my mother.” But, how important are these offhanded, casual, lighthearted comments really? Increase Longevity Through Growth and a Positive Outlook A 2018 Plus One study found that the chances of dementia can be lowered by 49.8% if a positive outlook is maintained. Who do you surround yourself with? What are your own thoughts? Do you think about yourself in 20, 30 or 40 years? What do you see? How does it feel? What are you doing and who are you doing it with? Physical exercise and nutrition are the two most important of the tangible things you can do. Your mindset, however, is number one. Yes, you should move every day and we eat every day. We think 60-70,000 thoughts a day and 90% of those are the same as yesterday. We continue living the same pattern and change becomes hard. While preparing for a class reunion, I looked through old yearbooks filled with messages like, “keep being you” or “don't forget who you are when you go to…. [university].” In reality, we didn't intentionally do it, but that advice is some of the worst we could have given each other. “Keep changing and evolving, growing and becoming” would have been wise beyond our years but even teachers didn't write things like that. Increase Longevity With a Youthful Mindset Dr Ellen Langer, the Mother of Mindfulness, tells us that we will stay stuck getting the same results, changing very little, if those habits aren't changing WHO we are. Unless your best habit is to break habits that keep you doing and repeating thoughts that aren't getting you results, you'll continue on the path you're on now. Virtually, you won't change much. The reframing of anything is possible. You've probably done it. For instance, you may have had to run in high school for punishment if you lost or you made mistakes or talked too much in class. Running then was bad. As an adult you may have come to love running maybe because someone you loved or envied did it and seemed to enjoy it. Not eating for a long period of time seemed so difficult, it was like dieting, which has a negative connotation stemming from deprivation. But today we know not eating between meals and going 12 hours between dinner and breakfast without calories is positive, and that some often go 16 or more hours without consuming calories and call it intermittent fasting. So when I go in for a fasting blood test and all that means is I haven't eating after dinner and it's 7:30 and they ask if I'm fasting or the phlebotomist asks what I'm going to eat first, as if I must be starving, I'm always a bit surprised they refer to it as a hardship not to have eaten for 11 hours, while I was sleeping most of the time. A reframe, right? Dr Ellen Langer's well-known Counterclockwise study (there's a book by the same title) with older adults asked to pretend “as if” they were their younger selves for a short time. They were exposed only to music, periodicals, movies of the time they were younger and by the end of the week older adults who arrived using canes, moving slowly, could hear better, see better, were playing touch football. Simply by changing their thoughts about aging.

Using the word “because” in sales conversations can significantly increase persuasion and conversion rates. A study by social psychologist Ellen Langer demonstrated that providing a reason, even a simple one, when making a request can boost compliance. Applying this principle, try incorporating “because” in your sales pitches to build trust and credibility.

What if midlife is not a crisis, but a chrysalis for transformation?This compelling question drives the conversation in this episode of Life in Transition with guest Chip Conley, best-selling author, hospitality entrepreneur, and founder of the Modern Elder Academy (MEA). Chip, who has navigated his own midlife challenges—including a near-death experience and redefining his identity—shares profound insights on how midlife can be a time of renewal and reinvention, rather than a period of crisis.At age 50, after building a highly successful boutique hotel company, Chip faced a turbulent period where his personal and professional life crumbled. But instead of seeing it as the end, Chip reframed his experience as a period of shedding—letting go of old identities to embrace something new. “I molted my identity, much like a snake sheds its skin,” Conley shares, describing the necessity of outgrowing old roles and labels. This process of molting allowed him to reimagine his life, eventually leading to his role as a mentor to the founders of Airbnb and later the creation of MEA.In this enlightening episode, Chip's reflections offer listeners practical wisdom on how to navigate the messy middle of midlife and emerge stronger on the other side. Whether you're going through your own transition or looking to support someone else, these insights serve as a powerful reminder that midlife can be a time of flourishing, not fading.In this episode, we'll talk about:Molting Old Identities: Chip Conley discusses the process of letting go of outdated identities and roles, and how this creates space for personal growth and reinvention in midlife.Navigating Transitions: Chip's near-death experience offered him a new perspective on life, prompting him to embrace urgency and purpose in every moment.Midlife Wisdom: Chip explains how the Modern Elder Academy helps people cultivate wisdom and reframe their relationship with aging, turning midlife from a crisis into an opportunity for transformation.The Importance of Community: Chip highlights the lack of social infrastructure for people in midlife and how having a support system is crucial for navigating life's transitions.Relationships and Growth: As we change in midlife, so do our relationships. Chip stresses the importance of empathy and recognizing how personal growth impacts others.Letting Go of Toxic Relationships: In some cases, personal growth may mean leaving behind relationships that no longer serve us, and Chip discusses how to navigate this difficult process.Living with Urgency and Purpose: Inspired by his experiences, Chip advocates for living every day as if it were your last, focusing on what truly matters.Connect with Chip:WebsiteInstagramFacebookLinkedInMentioned on the Show:Books:Wisdom at Work: The Making of a Modern Elder – A book by Chip Conley where he shares his journey at Airbnb and his insights on becoming a modern elder.Learning to Love Midlife – Chip referenced his writing on midlife transitions, particularly focusing on the concept of becoming "nobody" and shedding old identities.Becoming Nobody by Ram Dass – Chip mentioned this book while discussing the shedding of identities in midlife.Modern Elder Academy (MEA):Website: MEAwisdom.com – Chip's academy focuses on helping people navigate midlife transitions and cultivate wisdom through in-person and online programs.The Anatomy of a Transition: A free resource available on the MEA website that outlines the stages of transition (Ending, Messy Middle, New Beginning).Podcasts and Fireside Chats:Chip mentioned his popular online fireside chats featuring thought leaders like Gloria Steinem and Dr. Mark Hyman, which draw hundreds of attendees for intimate discussions on various topics.Movies and Talks:Chip referenced Ellen Langer, a prominent psychologist, during his conversation about aging and mindfulness, highlighting a fireside chat he had with her.Let's connect!

Wynne Leon and Vicki Atkinson talk about meditative moments. We think it's fair to say that we all have times where life feels frenzied. And it isn't only because our to-do lists get too long. It's also because of the pace of the world around us, and our exposure to the news, in whatever way we consume it. Both Vicki and Wynne start the day with sacred time for meditation. It's non-negotiable for Wynne so that she can at least start the day with a measure of faith and perspective. But we know that doesn't work for everyone. So we talk about our tricks to instill some calm. Vicki tells us about how she sets aside multi-tasking to focus on one thing at a time. And more than that, how to slow tasks to reap the full benefit. For Wynne, music can help to disrupt the stress swirl. Tuning in to songs from my youth delivers a noticeable energy lift as well. We touch on the research of Harvard psychology professor Dr. Ellen Langer about how our brains can impact our bodies. It's not hard to imagine that Vicki is an inveterate smile-r. She shares a story about how offering friendliness to others brings a side benefit of joy. We're confident you'll love the scenic and beautiful places we explore as we share the power of storytelling. We know you'll love it!

Harvard psychologist Ellen Langer explains how mindfulness can unlock timeless youth, reshape reality, and bridge the gap between mind and body. Known as the "Mother of Mindfulness," she shares how we are our own limiters, the power of language, and the path to a stress-free life. Ellen also covers the role of rituals, human evolution, and how to access mindfulness in daily life. ========== OUR GUEST ========== Ellen J. Langer was the first woman to be tenured in psychology at Harvard, where she is still professor of psychology. The recipient of three Distinguished Scientists awards, the Arthur W. Staats Award for Unifying Psychology, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and the Liberty Science Genius Award, Dr. Langer is the author of eleven other books, including the international bestseller Mindfulness, as well as The Power of Mindful Learning, Counterclockwise, and On Becoming an Artist. Her trailblazing experiments in social psychology have earned her inclusion in The New York Times Magazine's “Year in Ideas” issue. She is known worldwide as the “mother of mindfulness” and the “mother of positive psychology.” She lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts. ============= ELLEN LANGER =============

Hello everyone, I'm Dr. Laurie Marbas, a board-certified family and lifestyle medicine physician currently living full-time in an RV. In today's episode, I delve into the topic of stress and introduce a powerful tool called cognitive reappraisal, which is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I start by sharing some personal experiences, including the stress of selling my house and moving into an RV, to illustrate how stress can impact our lives. I then explain the concept of cognitive reappraisal, a psychological strategy that helps alter the way we interpret stressful situations to change our emotional responses. The process involves four steps: 1. Identify Negative Thoughts: Recognize and identify the negative or unhelpful thoughts that arise in response to a stressor. 2. Challenge Negative Thoughts: Examine the evidence for and against these thoughts, question their validity, and consider more balanced perspectives. 3. Reinterpret the Stressor: View the stressor in a way that reduces its emotional impact, such as seeing it as a challenge rather than a threat. 4. Implement Reappraised Thoughts: Replace the original negative thoughts with more constructive ones, making this new way of thinking automatic over time. I discuss the benefits of cognitive reappraisal, including improved emotional regulation, better mental health, enhanced resilience, and improved decision-making. I also touch on practical applications in various areas such as workplace stress, interpersonal relationships, and health-related stress. To wrap up, I encourage listeners to practice these steps and share some additional resources, including a research paper by Ellen Langer, the "mother of mindfulness," whom I interviewed on the podcast.

Good evening, everyone! Today's episode is a bit different as I'm recording later than usual due to a hectic day. I started my day on a high note, reminiscing about the joy an Asian pear brought me yesterday. Unfortunately, I couldn't find another one today, but I remained optimistic. I'm currently in Denver for the ACLM conference, staying in a hotel. My plans to see patients and conduct podcast interviews fell through as all appointments were canceled. This unexpected free time allowed me to enjoy a sunny day and take a walk. However, I received a call about a leak in our rental condo in Boulder, which required my immediate attention. Despite the disruption, I tried to find the silver lining, thinking about what could be my "Asian pear" in this situation. I spent 90 minutes driving to and from the condo, using the time to listen to podcasts and audiobooks. One intriguing question I pondered was whether one plus one always equals two. In many contexts, such as merging businesses or combining efforts, the sum can be greater than its parts. I reflected on how small, consistent actions in lifestyle medicine—like diet, exercise, and sleep—add up to significant health benefits over time. I emphasized the importance of a whole food plant-based diet, daily exercise, and good sleep. Additionally, managing stress, fostering community, and avoiding alcohol and smoking are crucial for overall well-being. I shared insights from Ellen Langer's book "Mindful," which discusses the mind-body connection and how our mindset can influence our physical health. For example, elderly men in a study showed remarkable improvements in health and vitality when placed in an environment reminiscent of their younger years. I also talked about my personal goal of running a half marathon in under two hours and how visualizing success can impact performance. I encouraged listeners to share their experiences on how thoughts have shaped their lives. Despite the challenges of the day, I chose to focus on the positives, like spending another day in Denver and having dinner with my son. I concluded by reiterating the power of a positive mindset and the synergistic effect of combining efforts. Thank you for joining me today. I'll be traveling tomorrow and will try to share my experiences from the Denver airport. Have a beautiful evening and a great weekend!

For those of us who are not dualists, the mind arises from our physical bodies -- mostly the brain, but the rest of the body has a role to play. And yet it remains tempting to treat the mind as a thing in itself, disconnected from how the body is doing. Ellen Langer is a psychologist who is one of the foremost researchers on the idea of mindfulness -- the cognitive skill of paying to one's thoughts, as well as to one's external environment. Her most recent book is The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health. We talk about how our state of mind can effect the functions of our body, sometimes in surprising ways.Support Mindscape on Patreon.Blog post with transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2024/06/17/279-ellen-langer-on-mindfulness-and-the-body/Ellen Langer received her Ph.D. in Social and Clinical Psychology from Yale University.
